Adapted by Heidi Thomas from the best-selling memoirs of Jennifer Worth, this drama series is a moving, funny, colorful look at midwifery and family in 1950s East End London. It follows newly qualified midwife Jenny, who joins an eccentric, lovable community of nuns who are nurses at Nonnatus House. Jenny is surprised to find herself at a convent -- she thought she was being sent to a small private hospital -- and is initially daunted by her surroundings, most notably the formidable Sister Evangelina and the unconventional Sister Monica Joan. But Jenny gradually begins to find her way and develops incredible friendships among the nurses, as they are drawn into the lives and homes of the women and families they treat.

Michael Hogan Daily Telegraph (UK) Call the Midwife is a triumph: a series created by, starring and largely about women. Rated: 4/5 Sep 28, 2018 Full Review Lucy Mangan Guardian Call the Midwife is one ruthlessly efficient emotion-harvesting machine. Rated: 4/5 Sep 28, 2018 Full Review Deborah Ross The Mail on Sunday (UK) Midwife is super-clever because, just as it's about to lose you, it pulls you back via the most extraordinary tugs to the heartstrings. Feb 1, 2018 Full Review Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) Heidi Thomas's drama works because it delivers harsh truths about how rotten life used to be in the "good old days" at the same time as giving off a comforting glow of humanity. Jun 28, 2018 Full Review Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) All might pan out at the end, with Trixie, Spry and Jaunty resetting their caps with determined joy and tucking into an inedible slab of celebratory lardcake, but not before we'd delved, long and harrowing, into bleakness.
